NOW SHOWING VESSEL AT THE NAVAL STORE:

‘Between Suns’ by Khaled Sabsabi
Curated by Mikala Tai

Khaled Sabsabi
Mikala Tai

Exhibition runs until 20th September:
Wednesdays 1-7pm
Thursday-Sundays 11-5pm

Responding to the site, ‘Between Suns’ unfolds as a multi-sensory journey through painting, video, sound, smell and installation. Anchored by Sabsabi’s first exhibited work Aajyna (1998), the exhibition traces a sustained inquiry into mysticism, the everyday, fate and coincidence - forces that quietly shape our experiences of life. This presentation of Aajyna is intimate in nature, an immersive experience that reflects on Sabsabi’s experience of the Lebanese Civil War as a child.

Working across painting, video, sound, installation and performance, Khaled approaches art as a communicative and ethical space: a shared language through which complex ideas of belonging, faith, power and collectively can be encountered. His work extends this inquiry, creating a tactile space for reflection on identity, spirituality, and the interrelatedness of daily life. Unfolding across cycles rather than fixed narratives, and inviting audiences into moments of reflection, resonance and exchange.

“Western Australia has a special place in my heart and has provided me with great opportunities and milestones of my career. This feels like another one that feels timely and meaningful.” — Khaled Sabsabi

Vessel Contemporary is an independent, not-for-profit contemporary arts organisation based at the Naval Store in Fremantle. This exhibition reflects the organisation’s core commitment to presenting thought-provoking contemporary art as a space for dialogue.
